Odaily News: Federal Reserve Chair Warsh stated that since Fed policymakers last met in June, the U.S. economy has strengthened, the labor market is essentially at full employment, while inflation trends have shown no improvement. Warsh said, "Even in just the past few weeks, I think there is now a wide range of data indicating that the economy has indeed strengthened. The underlying momentum of economic growth is building. The problem is inflation — the issue of price stability has persisted for more than five and a half years." (Jinshi)

Odaily News: In his opening remarks at a press conference, Federal Reserve Chair Waller emphasized that both he and other policymakers are dissatisfied with the current pace of inflation. He stated: "What we are most focused on right now is the price stability side of our monetary policy mandate. The fact is simple: inflation is too high, and it has persisted for too long. The inflation data this summer has not shown me any meaningful improvement in the underlying trend." He pointed out that in recent CPI and PPI data, there are still too many categories with gains exceeding 3% over the past 6 months and 12 months. The Fed Chair emphasized that the FOMC's goals are clear and crucial: achieving full employment and price stability, and promoting a thriving U.S. economy that serves as a global benchmark. (Jinshi)

Odaily News: The Federal Reserve hiked rates in September as expected, after the central bank had kept rates unchanged at its July meeting. Fed Chair Warsh said three things changed between the two meetings. He said data released in recent weeks showed the U.S. economy performing strongly, especially the labor market. At the same time, inflation remained elevated throughout the summer, clearly above the Fed's 2% year-over-year inflation target. Finally, he said geopolitical factors also prompted the Fed to change its assessment of the economic outlook, though he did not directly mention the U.S.-Iran war in the Middle East. Warsh said: "All three of these things contributed to the firm and unanimous decision we made today." (Jinshi)
